Mailly Grand Cru Extra Brut Vintage Champagne

Champagne Extra Brut Millesimato is produced by the Mailly maison, founded in 1929 and one of the oldest cooperatives in the Champagne region. Initially, the cooperative, made up of 24 winemakers, had no cellar. Led by their president, Gabriel Simon, the winemakers dug a 19-meter-deep underground cellar by hand in two years.

The wine is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. After manual harvesting, the grapes are pressed in whole bunches. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks and barrels at 15°C, followed by aging on fine lees in the region's unique gypsum caves.

The wine has a straw yellow color with fine, persistent bubbles. The aroma offers fruity and mineral notes, with hints of citrus and delicate spices. The taste is creamy and harmonious.

This Champagne pairs well with meat or fish carpaccio, sushi, and sashimi.
